Eh, they were fun back in the day, but I stopped using isohunt back when they switched off US access. That was years ago (2008 I think). Private trackers are the way to go anyway. These days I make my home at iptorrents.com and rarely have to look far for anything I want.
I am a bit disgustipated that the MPAA is going to have a payday out of this, though. I hope they are crushed under their pallets of money and obsolescence.

This has been rolling along for quite a while, it's just the fact that the xxAA is going to be laughing up their sleeves and patting each other on the back about what a good job they did that really gets me. All they've really done is to financially kill some people (and demonize a medium) to protect their interests, they didn't really do anything useful.

The transcripts of those court proceedings are infuriating to read.
MPAA: We seek 600 quadrillion dollars for losses incurred due to Isohunt.
Court: Can you provide exact numbers of losses or how you came to them to show why you are seeking such an astronomical result?
MPAA: No, we don't want to but we assure you it's actually much higher.

I thought most people used Pirate Bay, anyway? That and EZTV are my two go-to spots for skulduggery.
